Bristol School of Performing Arts

Great performing arts school. My kid is happy.

it’s good here but they should really focus on friendships more. i got bullied here and left because they didn’t do anything. it’s also really expensive.

BSPA is absolutely fantastic. They have given my daughter enormous confidence over the last few years, and are FAR better than Stagecoach in my opinion. My daughter is now involved with Choir, as well as performances, and will be appearing in a well known production in a Weston Theatre soon. I am grateful to all those that have supported and encouraged my daughter, and the support she gets from other children is superb.I love attending the shows and watching the children perform, they are really professional, and I can honestly say I feel proud to be a parent here.

My daughters have flourished since joining BSPA 2 years ago. The creative team are all extremely talented and experienced professionals who nurture their students' love of theatre in a friendly and inclusive environment. There are a variety of classes available, as well as private singing and music lessons. The annual musical, which is performed to a very high standard, also gives the children an opportunity to audition in front of a panel of industry professionals. There are also many other opportunities to perform locally throughout the year. They also have an annual summer school which is loads of fun and gives some of the London theatre summer schools a run for their money! Parking is also very easy, which is a plus. All in all, BSPA is a fantastic stage school that enables your child to reach their full potential - we love it!

8 years of BSPA in two locations. My son has gone from boy to man through the care of the school. Especially through lockdown when the one to one singing lessons with Miss Amanda were the highlight of the week. The last two big shows - Adam’s family and Legally Blonde were amazing and the children had so much fun.

I would definitely recommend BSPA. My daughter is a student there. She absolutely loves it. She has been enrolled since it moved location to Warmley. It is so convenient and parking is very easy.Amanda, Sam, Sophie and Chloe are brilliant teachers. They have really increased her confidence and ability in acting and singing.She has private singing lessons with Amanda who has increased her range and repertoire, and has just started piano lessons with Chloe, which she is really enjoying.
